Novelty Tea Bags & Tea Bag Collectors


From the good folks at Donkey Products, comes a series of novelty tea bags. There's the politically-themed, or DemocraTea, the RoyalTea series, which probably needs no explanation, and the slightly racy StripTea. If you need something to drink it from why not try the Miss Piggy mug?

If collecting tea bags is your thing (yes, there are apparently people who collect tea bags), try out the collectibles site, Colnect, who recently rolled out "the world's first Tea Bags catalog for collectors." Tea bags from Latvia, anyone?

Collecting tea bags is an interesting little hobby considering that those tea bags are really becoming a relic of the 20th century. They're interesting history, therefore. More of a modern take are these novelty tea bags. Any tea bags that aren't fun like that are taking themselves way too seriously. --Spirituality of Tea

Hi
I have tebags from Croatia to offer in exchange for used stamps. I exchange 5 stamps for 1 teabag. Stamps can be doubles but no more then 10 of the same kind. Tell me if you like to exchange and how many doubles do you need.
